Excerpt from The Rebels, or Boston Before the Revolution
Thus much for the period I have chosen. How faithfully it has been portrayed, must be left to critics less merciful than myself.
Many will complain that I have dwelt too much on political scenes, familiar to every one who reads our history; and others, on the contrary, will say that the character of the book is quite too tranquil for its title. I might mention many doubts and fears, still more important; but I prefer silently to trust this humble volume to that futurity which no one can foresee, and every one can dread.
